This flower-viewing banquet went smoothly for Shui Qianqiu, at least except for Shui Qianzi looking for trouble, the rest of her was stable. However, she knew in her heart that this temporary calm was just for the sake of Wen Beixu's face, and once there was no him behind her, the storm would immediately sweep in.

"Ugh."

Shui Qianqiu, who returned to her yard, became more and more troubled the more she thought about it, and the road ahead became more and more difficult, and she hadn't figured out how to make money. So far, a total of two drawings have been drawn, the first one does not know where it went, and the second one was taken away by Wen Beixu, if she wants to introduce her design drawings to others, there is no drawing to use, is it difficult to bring people to her home to see?

"Miss, let's have some tea." Qingyu poured a cup of tea and asked softly, "What does Miss plan to do with Autumn Leaves?" ”

Shui Qianqiu sipped her tea and asked, "What's the movement of Madam and Big Sister?" ”

"See, no."

She pondered for a while, and then ordered, "Grab some snacks, and let's go to see my father and put the autumn leaves on it." ”

Now that the war has begun, she can't be passive every time. What's more, she still has to survive in this mansion for a while, and Master Shui is the person she has to curry favor with.

Lianwu Jinda dragged the autumn leaves all the way, Qingyu brought a box of pastries, and Shui Qianqiu took them straight to the study.

"Second Miss, the master is busy for the time being, please go back first."

Shui Qianqiu was stopped by the housekeeper just before he arrived at the study, and Shui Qianqiu said in a low voice: "I have an urgent matter to see my father, and at this time it is about the reputation of the family, I really have no idea, and I ask the housekeeper to give me a voice." ”

Steward Zhang's face was a little bad, and he looked at the maid pressed behind him, so he could only knock on the master's door.

"Master, the second lady said that she wanted to see you in an emergency, which is related to the reputation of the family."

After a while, Shui Qian let Shui Qianqiu in.

"What's so serious?" Shui Qian sat in the chair and was still reading the teachings handed by his subordinates, Shui Qianqiu asked Lianwu to bring the autumn leaves to the front, and said softly: "Today, Mrs. asked her daughter to go to the flower appreciation banquet with the eldest sister, which was originally fine, but the eldest sister suddenly said in front of everyone that her daughter and the foreign man gave and received it privately, and even slandered the daughter to send someone to inquire about the foreign man. ”

Hearing this, Shui Mo threw the teachings away, raised his head and frowned: "Is there such a thing?" ”

"How could this be? The daughter's personality daddy still doesn't understand? In the past, if the door was not out of the door, where would there be an opportunity to contact with foreign men? Shui Qianqiu couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart, when did she still care about this matter, is it true? It's really eccentric.

"I think your eldest sister is also afraid that you will go astray, so it will not get in the way." Shui Cambodia looked indifferent, Shui Qianqiu suppressed the anger in his heart, and continued to whisper: "Yes, the eldest sister is kind." After I flatly denied it, the eldest sister didn't know when to bring the people in my courtyard to the flower viewing banquet, and the head of the story was the Tao. ”

Shui Qian raised his eyebrows, Shui Qianqiu didn't give him a chance to question, and continued: "Dad, my daughter didn't come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, but wanted her father to persuade her eldest sister. She listened to the gossip made up by the subordinates, and it was okay to confront me directly without verification, but should this matter be said in her own house behind closed doors, instead of being deliberately brought to outsiders. ”

"The eldest sister deliberately argued with me about this matter when there were many people and even the son of the family, forcing my daughter to argue with her for the innocence of the family."

Shui Mo slapped the table and said angrily: "You, what do you have to argue? Isn't this to let outsiders see that my Shui family is not harmonious, and let people see the joke in vain? ”

Shui Qianqiu gritted his teeth, how did this Shui Cambodia become a five-grade official? Is it so unclear or is it iron-hearted to protect Shui Qianzi?

"Dad, if I don't argue, it's okay to let the dignitaries and nobles in Manyu Prefecture and the sons of the world misunderstand me. But don't forget, Shui Qianzi is the daughter of the Shui family, and so am I. My reputation is stained, can the water family wash it away? One is prosperous, and one is lost. The eldest sister insisted on taking this matter outside regardless of the family's face and said, she took the people in my yard out, and now, she has become a daughter, right? ”

"Since this is the case, my daughter will go to them and make it clear to those young ladies and young masters, and say that what the eldest sister said is all right, and when the time comes, it will make the prince angry, don't say that the daughter is sorry for the Shui family."

Shui Qianqiu let Lianwu drag the autumn leaves out, Shui Qianqiu's brain hurt, and just about to say something, Shui Qianqiu had already gone out.

When she went out, she met Wang Shi coming over, and she smiled slightly and saluted.

"Second girl, this ......"

"Madame don't have to worry, I've already told my father what to do, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first."

Shui Qianqiu hurriedly went back after speaking, and as soon as he arrived at the courtyard, he sat down and drank several sips of tea.

"Miss, drink slowly." Qingyu is also distressed Miss, obviously this matter is what the eldest lady did wrong, this old man still protects the eldest lady and says that their young lady is not, it is really eccentric.

"He doesn't want a good reputation, so don't ask for it. Anyway, I didn't have to go out anyway, you go outside and release the news, and release all the words that Shui Qianzi slandered me today, you don't have to say anything, although it tarnishes my reputation. ”

Shui Qianqiu leaned back in the chair, and Qingyu hesitated and asked, "Miss, although the master said so, we don't really have to be like this." After these words are spread, what should the prince think? Even if you don't have a prince, it will be difficult for you to marry in the future. ”

She squinted at the speckled shadows of the trees, and chuckled, "Look, it's eight hundred enemies and one thousand self-losses, but it's good for me." is not worthy of the world, even if he really marries me with a brain fever, how long can he treat me well? is monogamous, and there are only a handful of people who grow old together, not to mention that they can have three wives and four concubines? ”

"In my life, I won't marry unless I meet a confidant beloved."

Qingyu didn't understand well, poured tea for the young lady and said, "Miss, this is nonsense, how can there be a woman who doesn't marry?" That's to be laughed at. ”

"They laugh at them, I live mine. Don't talk about it so much, let's get the news out of it. ”

Shui Qianqiu urged Qingyu, but Qingyu still hesitated, and was stalemate Wen Beixu.

"The dignified son climbs over the wall all day long, but it is so Yaxing." Shui Qianqiu sighed silently in his heart and got up to salute. Wen Beixu raised his eyebrows and said, "If I don't climb over the wall, how can I know what you think in your heart?" Why don't you want to marry me? ”

Shui Qianqiu didn't expect him to even hear those words, and he couldn't think of words to explain for a while, so he fell silent.

Wen Beixu was a little impatient when she saw her silence, and it happened that at this time, the Wang family came over with Master Shui.

"Go quickly, lest you get me in trouble." Shui Qianqiu opened his mouth to let him leave, but Wen Beixu's temper came up, but he couldn't persuade him, he pulled a chair and sat down, and said lightly: "I'll see who dares to trouble you." ”

When Wang and Master Shui came over, they were a little stunned when they saw Wen Beixu sitting in the courtyard, and Shui Qianqiu standing on the side bowing his head respectfully.

"When did the prince come to the Humble House? This dead girl didn't even tell me, please forgive me for neglecting the world. Shui Cambodia saluted respectfully, and Wang stood behind him and secretly said that it was not good.

Wen Beixu was not good at Shui Qianqiu, looked at the water that came over, and sneered: "I didn't notify you, didn't Lord Shui also come over majestically?" ”

"This ......" Shui Qian wanted to phrase for a moment, and Wen Beixu continued: "I came to ask what was going on at today's flower viewing banquet?" Do you look down on me and like the second lady and rush to slander her, or do you bully her without protecting her? ”

"What did the prince say? It is her blessing that the prince can like the little girl, and it is also the blessing of our water house, how can she not look down on it, besides, our father and mother in this family are protecting her. ”

Shui Cambodia broke out in a slight cold sweat on his forehead, this son of the world is not very old, but his imposing eyes can overwhelm people.

"Guarding? If she really protects her, the eldest lady of the Shui family will be busy slandering her sister in front of everyone? Didn't you learn from people in Su Ri? It doesn't matter if your Shui family is thick-skinned, but if it affects the reputation of Qianqiu, I will never spare you. ”

Wen Beixu was happy in one breath, Shui Qianqiu listened silently on the side, and looked at him at this time out of the corner of his eye, and he was a little moved. It turns out that in this strange world, is there anyone else willing to protect her?

"Yes, what the prince said is that the lower officials must remember the lesson, and if someone treats them harshly in the future, the lower officials will be punished heavily." Shui Khan glared at the Wang family sideways, and Wen Beixu hooked his lips and said lightly: "Today, Qianqiu was slandered in public, it is a matter of her reputation, how does Lord Shui think this person should be punished?" ”

Shui Khmer paused for a moment and said, "Is it okay to beat Autumn Leaves to death and throw them out?" ”

"What else?" Wen Beixu stared at him gloomily, and Shui Qian swallowed his saliva and was puzzled: "Also, what?" ”

"The Lord of the Lord Shui is not going to take care of it? If she doesn't teach this person a lesson, if she doesn't have a long memory in the future, what if she bullies Qianqiu again? ”

Seeing that Shui Cambodia hesitated, Wang couldn't stand still, so she hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down and cried: "There are a lot of Lord Shizi, Qianzi will definitely not dare to act like this in the future, this time she was instigated by this person to do so, she really didn't dare." ”

Wen Beixu sideways, Shui Qianqiu looked at him and said, "If you don't raise it, it's your mother's fault." ”

As soon as she finished saying this, Shizi immediately understood what she meant, and said lightly: "The eldest lady is two years older than Qianqiu, so she is so ignorant that Mrs. did not teach well, so please ask Mrs. to take her to be punished." ”

Wang was still wiping his tears, and he was stunned when he heard this: "The world ...... The ...... of the Prince"

"Let's just hit the twenty boards, and you can't play too hard, right?" Wen Beixu directly cut off her words of begging for mercy, and secretly warned her that this was already light, and if she didn't know how to be satisfied, there would be even more ruthless.

Wang gasped, and he had to thank Shizi's subordinates for mercy, and he really stepped on the ground with his face.
